Can a 1999 Cherokee Sport automatic 2WD be towed 4 wheels down behind a motorhome?

 

Put it in neutral and don't set the parking brake. If you are still nervous, disconnect the drive shaft.

 

Thanks CodeXJ, but I was looking for a technical answer since many automatics including the newer jeeps can be towed in nuetral without disconnecting the drive shaft. I'm looking for something to pull behind my moterhome and have found this Cherokee. I dont want to buy anything that I have to drop the drive shaft on.

 

Unless you disconnect the driveshaft, you can damage the transmission even if it's in neutral.

 

Buy one that has 4WD

 

If you are just going a few miles you'll be okay. Otherwise, you risk trans damage, since the pump isn't running... I towed a van about 100 miles a while back. I didn't feel like pulling the drive shaft, so I just started the van, let it run in neutral the whole way, with no issues... Didn't care about burning the gas, since I needed the tank empty on it anyway.
